Answer: C
The one that is not a risk factor is safe transportation vessels with floating devices.
Safe boats and life jackets or other floatation devices are a protective measure that prevents drowning, listed by WHO among drowning prevention strategies.
The other three are risk factors: alcohol use near or in water impairs judgement and swimming, medical conditions such as epilepsy can cause loss of consciousness in water, and tourists unfamiliar with local currents and water hazards are at higher risk.
